Do they carry out care assessments at home?

How much does Kingsfield Residential Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Kingsfield Residential Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Westmorland and Furness council paid on average £1,203 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
